Well yes hes right, its perfectly normal to have a stage fright, and me too still I haven't overcome it yet especially singing in many people..^^ I no singer but I sang in my college years. Fear in public speaking is really hard to overcome and one way to overcome that is constant practice and a lot of guts really and try to have a mental state where you cannot see them or try to have some breathing exercises which is really important when you are anxious or afraid. A deep respiration for couple of second and counting from 1-10 is also effective.. Hope that help my dear and Thanks for your comment and happy posting to you my friend!!!

For the past 10 years,I had these ups and downs which made me done a lot of changes in my life, as being a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister, and they're all for good. But maybe those low moments in my life is God's way of changing me to a better person. And I'm glad for what I am now, had learned my lessons. And whatever changes are still needed for myself, I still lay up to HIm wharever He wants me to change, and I know it will be all for good.

There is a couple of things. One being my weight, I would like to lose about 40 pounds. The other is I would like to be more educated and more informed. I try to stay up with current events but never seem to have the time. Like talking about current issues with people.

Wow a lot, I mean all of the posters have weight problem? :b one suggestion is to lower down the consumption of carbohydrate and calories a day. I know its difficult but with a little change and perseverance you can loose weight and hey I have downloaded in the net the weight loss video (HIP HOP ABS) and it really works for me and you have fun with workout while dancing, the dance steps are so easy to follow. Thanks for you time and your post and happy posting my friend!!!

Basically, there are alot of things that i like about myself right now, and if i can change, i will also wanna change the whole of myself too.. lol Y? Simply because i know that, once i change a certain character of certain part of myself, i wun be the same old me anymore, and i wun be able to understand myself.. And since that's the case, i might as well change everything about myself and understand myself all over again ^_^ hehe

Yes counseling might help you to control your anger. One way I've learn is try to be "assertive" which means that you express your feeling of anger towards the person by saying "I". Like for example "I am angry whenever you make fun of me" or "I am angry with you because of this and that". It's really not bad to be angry, you only have to manage it and have to control your emotions. Other way is like I've said to the other posers is doing deep breathing exercises, it helps by relaxing your body. Other way is to write it down like we are doing now, for me this way I'm very much relieve whenever I wrote my anger and I hope you find your ways to cope with your anger and believe me there are lot of ways really to manage anger. Thanks for posting and change for the better!!!!

If I could change anything with my life it would have to be a better parent. I would love to spend more quality time with my kids and give them things that I never had growing up. I would also like to lose weight. I have recently given birth for the fourth time and am now 150 lbs when I am used to only weighing around 110.

That's really nice.. I don't know you personally but how did you say that your not being a good parent? I know being a parent comes with a great responsibility and bearing a child is I know hard for every mother and I'm proud of you for that. As I always say it's not wrong for people to change but we must change for the better not only to our self but to our love ones too. Thanks for your sharing and happy posting!!! Just believe in yourself and nothing is impossible my friend!!

Please clarify your answer. What do you mean the way you speak? Is your word harsh or your judgmental or what? That really nice for you to change as I've said theres nothing wrong with changing ones attitude but make it sure its for the better. Thanks for your post and happy mylotting!!

I used to be more self-confident. Of course I used to be more physically attractive too. I gained a lot of weight after I had my hysterectomy and now I can't seem to lose the weight. I find though that I don't want to live like I am on a deserted island where there is no food. I'm not sure if I want to change the fact that I don't want to be a "dieter" or if I want to change my own sense of motivation or if I simply want to allow myself to be content with my body shape now and learn to shop for clothes that look more attractive on me. (my jeans give me muffin-top)

I can see that your having a difficult time dealing with your figure and maybe you can try a lot of ways not only to be a dieter but the way you look at yourself that you perceive others and what might other say to you. I know how you feel and we really don't like that imperfection but we can always be contented or if not we have to do something about it..So what do you think would be the solution for your problem? Like I said theres no problem if you change, but change for the better. Thanks for sharing ma'am and I hope you decide on whats best for you and happy posting!!!

In terms of my physical aspect I do not want to change anything about me even with my attitude because if I will then probably my wife will not love me for being who I am and if there is something I would like to change then that would be the people around me that hope especially the poor people that they could be feeling better everyday......

I'd love to be able to change the fact that I feel like I can't always speak truthfully from my heart. If certain things bother me or upset me I hold them inside and bury them. Surely that can't be healthy!? I'd have my old self-confidence back. Along with my old body. Having a child can really leave you with a distorted view of your body. I'd make 50lbs vanish if I could. I'd stop overanalyzing everything. Peoples choices, words, actions...It's stressful always trying to find reasonings in why people do what they do. Lastly, I would finally stand up to my parents and tell them once and for all just how emotionally scarred they left me.

So you have a liar heart? ^_^ Oh mustn't keep all those negative inside you because sooner or later you know what will happen, it will explode. I want to help you but were really not that close and all I can do is to be here for you and I'm not going to advice but I'm just going to give my opinion regarding your situation. I think your going to a lot of depression and anger in your heart and I know bearing a child and being a mom is really difficult job in the world. All I can say is to let go of your emotion and be brave to face the consequences so the pain in your heart me healed. As of now, all I can suggest is to clear your mind and focus to your priority which is being a mom. I know its difficult to stand up to your parents, I know how you feel and me too I have things left unsaid to my parents but I think in time they would understand and I'm sure that we can overcome that soon... Hope that goes well to you and just don't hesitate to change and there's nothing wrong with it. like I said its o.k. to change but change for the better. Thanks for your comment and happy posting my friend.

Oh really, Welcome to my.lot friend, base from what you've said I think that all change from childhood to adulthood. Like me I remember the days when we are child because I know there still a child in all of us. It's just funny when all we done back then is just playing and yourself but as we know we tend to change as we grow older. and that I think is pretty much normal and now all we are thinking is not only our self but the others too. I just want to clarify that what I would like to know my friend is what do you want to change in yourself in the present or something you want to change gradually or in the near future.. May it be physical, mental, emotional, traits, characteristic, etc.. But anyway thanks for your comment friend and hope you don't change but change for the better thanks for posting!!!!

i like to change my personality of telling things to others excitedly without a final assurance. Even if im not yet sure of the idea or of the proposal, i easily got excited of bragging it to my friends or parents. This happened often times. I cant hold of the good news not to tell it. hehe
